Great picture.
Thanks for the new thread Jared.

You know, life is too short to waste on such a non-entity as Maniston, I really do believe her stupidity, contradictory bullsh*t, hypocrisy, and vindictiveness are now evident to all due to her last couple of ‘pieces,’ pimping her dog movie — the best is that she’s so brain-dead, she’s now pimping Brad’s movie FOR him, and he hasn’t said jacksh*t about her!! ROFLMAO!! Too TOO hilarious. WE JP fans have it good with the sheer entertainment value and scahdenfreude(sp) homely b*tchiston gets.

Next time, however I think I will answer like this –

(((((BAM!!!!!))))))

Arcade Fire Lend “Body” to Benjamin Button TV Spot

Big is a movie about a kid who gets his wish to be a grown-up, Jack is a movie about a kid who looks like a grown-up, Youth Without Youth is a movie about a grown-up who grows younger, and, well, the forthcoming The Curious Case of Benjamin Button appears to roll aspects of all these films into one.

Starring Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett and directed by David Fincher (Fight Club, Se7en, Panic Room), Button looks to be quite the drama-rama– which may explain why some savvy marketing person decided to soundtrack a TV spot for the film with a portion of the Arcade Fire’s grandiose, organ-saturated Neon Bible closer “My Body Is a Cage” [via The Playlist].

One of the unfortunate casualties of the bad economy was the film industry, with less people willing to shell out their dwindling cash reserve to go to the cinema.

There were, though, a few movies that were well worth the financial sacrifice of buying a ticket in 2008.

Five of the most notable were:

Changeling

Directed by Clint Eastwood
, Changeling was, I believe, misjudged by some critics who deemed it, unfairly, as not being up to Eastwood’s usual standards. The film is based upon a real life story that occurred in 1928. Angelina Jolie proves, in her performance, that she is more than just Brad Pitt’s significant other, but is a compelling artist in her own right. Jolie plays Christina Collins, a devoted mother whose 9-year-old son disappears. A boy is returned to her, but she informs the LAPD, that he is, in fact, not her child. The ensuing cover-up causes her to be wrongly persecuted for her insistence upon disclosing the truth, as the corrupt LAPD attempts to discredit her. Others in the cast include John Malkovich, Michael Kelly and Colin Feore, but it is Jolie, as the determined mother, who pulls at our emotions and makes Changeling worth seeing.

Good morning / evening every one , and thank you Jared.

Okay. This post went in moderation. However, I meant it is great that Changeling is getting recognition. Too funny.

Well I read all that at imdb and bradpittfan. com.
Please find the article you read, please post it.

Poor Jen has really boxed herself in. She is too busy explaining the Vogue interview and not much on the Dog movie. However, BP and AJ have done a great job in promoting their movies and continuing their humanitarian projects. The more Whiny talks, the more she backtracks. Too funny.

interesting maniston can’t stop talking about brad and ang, and since this summer starting with venice and up to today, brad has not mentioned jennypoo’s name or even been asked a question about her,lol, the shame.

Another interview with Taraji with exclusive clips from Benjamin Button

How was working with Brad Pitt?

TPH: He’s incredible. Brad is an amazing talent. He hit this one out of the ballpark because he was subtle to all these amazing characters that he encountered. They all made a dent in Benjamin Button’s life.

What did you learn from working with David Fincher on this film?

TPH: In working with David Fincher, I just learned patience. David likes to do a lot of takes, which now I’m a huge fan of. Because of that, I expect a lot of takes now on films knowing the director wants to get the scene right. When it comes to the craft, I can be a bit obsessive. I can go away from the scene and I would still obsess over it. When you get a chance to do as many takes as we did on ‘Benjamin Button’, you can still walk away feeling secure, and yet, I would still find a way to obsess.

Is there any particular scene that stood out for you?

TPH: The most endearing thing for me was a scene where the older looking Benjamin gets scolded for playing with a young Daisy. Daisy’s grandmother comes to scold him because he looks like a pervert. People don’t quite understand his disease. All she knows is that there is this old man playing under the table playing with my granddaughter. She scolds him and they go upstairs and Queenie holds him and breaks it down to him and lets him knows that people aren’t going to know how to treat him and respond to him because of his appearance. I’m a single mother raising an African American son and that’s a conversation that I have had quite often with him about how some people will judge him based on the color of his skin.

Have you been paying any attention to the Oscar buzz you’re receiving for this performance?

TPH: I leave that up to the stars. I’m honored to have my name in that position, but I’m just taking it one day at a time and leaving that up to God.

Pitt’s homes open doors to families

Families are moving into the first six houses built through Brad Pitt’s Make It Right foundation in Hurricane Katrina-ravaged New Orleans.
One home was already strewn with green garland, lights, wreaths and red bows but the Hollywood actor admits there is much more to do.

Pitt said: “I’m really happy for the families that are going to be here, but I can’t help but think about the families that aren’t.

“It’s a push-pull for me. The excitement is that it’s being proven that it’s working. The frustration is that we have a long way to go.”

Make It Right was launched by Pitt a year ago. The programme calls for construction of 150 energy-efficient homes in a section of New Orleans washed away when Katrina broke levees on August 29, 2005.

So far, six homes have been built. Two more are under way, and construction on another 14 begins in early 2009.

Pitt said that by December 2009, the Lower ninth Ward should be one of America’s largest “green” neighbourhoods.

Inez Converse, 71, isn’t concerned about her area setting any records. She’s just happy to be back in the neighbourhood she lived in for more than 35 years before Katrina. And she said she was glad she had the chance to thank Pitt personally.

Pitt descibed his new film, The Curious case of Benjamin Button, as “a love letter to New Orleans”. “There’s a sense of magic here, so it made this fantastic story almost believable,” he said.

Pitt said his fondness for the city led him and partner Angelina Jolie to buy an early-1830s masonry mansion in the French Quarter.
